Guest guest Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 Om....Sakthi...... Dear ones.....; As Miss Sudha said ......gone are the Saree days.....gone are those traditions."Gone with the wind ...from the west" But as a matter of fact all these changes takes place according to that Great Godess will only...! One day Swami Vivekananda was doing meditation in the North near Kashmir.He was sitting in an old temple of DEvi.Then he saw in His visions......how the temple was destructed by the Muslim invasion to INDIA. He became sad & angry.Then He thought in his mind " If I'm there I'll have protected this temple". Then all of a sudden DEVI appeared infront of him and told...."son this All happened according to My Will only. Now tell me Shall I protect u OR R u going to protect ME ?? " On hearing this Swami fell at Mother's Lotus feet. Soooooo no point in crying abt Tradition & Sarees.......Becoz No one of us created the so called tradition.So why cry for something that which is not really urs.!!! Your Mother...Devi.....Sree MAhalakshi is the only this that u can say your's.So cry for HEr.....!!! wish u all best dear ones....AMy Devi gaurd U all.

Your Mother...Devi.....Sree MAhalakshi is the only this that u can say your's." Does this mean that we can never do anything, change anything unless we actually had a hand in creating that thing in the first place? I don't think so. It is a tamasic misconception that because everything comes from Devi why exert yourself at all. Because you are here you are already involved and have a stake in everything. If you value tradition of any kind, sarees or otherwise, for their sattvic bases, you have a stake in the maintenance of that tradition. It is not the tradition that is important it is the sattvic nature that fostered it and which it promotes that is in your interest to protect. To do nothing may be sink deeper into maya and tamas or rajas. But also, to over- react in a rajasic manner is also not beneficial. The action must be sattvic and reflect cosmic consciousness. Your first task is to bring yourself to Brahman. Your second task is bring others to Brahman while retaining Cosmic Consciousness yourself. In uplifting others and replacing tamasic/rajasic personal, societal or world practices with sattvic ones is to affirm your connection with the divine and to create more and more places on earth that support the maintenance of that divine connection for all.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2002 Report Share Posted November 9, 2002 Om Sakthi ..... Dear one ...I din't say anything of My own.MAy be I'm not as knowldgeable as u are.I just got taht idea from one of our great Gruru.....God..MAn..! A great King ...........Still a poor Cattle Boy......World kns Him as Sri Krishna.Me too....! I didn't tell taht we shouldn't try to change anything.......I mean to retrive our tradition.I jsut said we shouldn't CRY.... loud ......taht something is Going off...or may be gone ..!!!! I don't kn itz Tammsic...Sattvic...Or something else. Krishna said Arjuna...Why u r feeling pettiy for All those great warriors who stand infront of U ....Becoz they R ur realtives & Gurus ??? If SO U don't have to worry abt tht......Becoz ME Myself have killed them several time before !!! U r just doing it .......!!! There is nothing NEW in it ...! And Atlast Krishna reveals Arjuna the fact.... HE & Arjuna are same...! So as Prem said.......Yes we can lead others to Bramha only if we ourself attain taht state .....! But To see a Light tehre should be some darkness......! U call it Tamasic or wht ever....But only in darkness u see light...! So .....the Maya will be acting on u.......making u think ...work...do ur karma....Until an Unless u r capable of going out of the KArmic field...! Krishna Also says no one can easily get aways...or stay back from Karama....! But it doesn't mean taht U should be totally indulged or stay back from it.It jsut means U keep a passive mind.Like a water drop on a Lotus leaf...! This was only My idea.I mean abt going away of tradition.We should try to keep it on back to tracks .....If ur mind will so.But its alwasy better to be passive.Becoz in indulging in such things more....U r unconciously being a part of Another KARAM CYCLE....! ........Then how u can Attain Bramha....! Devi id not differnt from u.This is the theorey....! We all kn taht.Thinking otherwise is Tamassic...too.But Still this is not knowledge.....Becoz of May we kn it..Still don't kn it WELL....! In Sucha situaion..........All men have only one option......As Krishna says.....Surrender to ME.....! Swami Vivekanda's story tells the same.Devi asks Him a question tht open His inner eyes...though being a Sait...He too had Tammasic effect....The MAY.Then Why talk abt we poor ignorent people...! So Devi ask Him "Now Shall I protect u ....or are u going to protect me..."..! Hope with the help of my Gurus..& My Devi...I'm possible to expain the Views( I can't say My views) love....Pramod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
